PC Guru is now owned by a satellite company of 4IG, and they now sprout anti woke madness…

4IG (a Hungarian IT enterprise with a lot of ties to Fidesz) offered some streaming services for them. No knowledge on anything further, only that Fidesz likes to deplatform musicians and allegedly also into collecting kompromat (compromising information on people that are used for blackmail).

Or 3D print a stand to keep it sideways.

Or the employee was an allergy denialist. I know many people like that, and at least one almost killled a person, for the sole reason of some people claiming to ge gluten intolerant because of their health guru saw some people losing weight due to their primary carb source became expensive (it had a weird positive side effect of such item being more available, although early on some of such items secretly contained gluten).

Hungary already did that. The last “independent” TV has stopped airing news critical of the Russian invasion.

Funny thing is, I was thinking about writing my own text editor that is not a web application running in chromium, and wanted to name it “Blackjack”.

Go go, crablang nijigenerate redot MotherRussiaOS!!!

Special mention to all the hateforks created due to “valid concerns over code of conducts potentially banning white men from contribution” - a friend of mine had to clean up a state project that used such a hate fork that got terribly left behind.

For monopolistic behavior, right?

Only the rich would make to Mars, the rest would be left on Earth to die in the climate collapse.

Yet, Meta cannot do anything about hate speech…

Guitar amp and pedal modeling.

And so is Arm, especially their Mali drivers.

While some go “um, ackchually, you don’t need a GPU driver for your hobby project of using a cheap SBC to run emulators”, it does affect usability a lot. Yeah, Arm also pointing at the licensors and so are licensors to Arm in this case, but it’s still not good that the only SBCs with relatively good GPU drivers for Linux are made by Raspberry Pi, and in all other case, you either need to pirate the drivers (!), use the tool that allows regular Linux to use Android GPU drivers, or just use the framebuffer-only driver with heavy limitations.

I have to use Facebook daily because of family, and I don’t think Zucc cares about hate speech anymore. But call a right wing chud a sadistic psychopath, you get a 3 day ban for bullying.

UPDATE: It seems that Facebook puts more effort into hiding comments that could be potentially be used to reveal bots as bots through well known LLM jailbreak methods, than into curbing hate speech. Zucc really wants that extra tax lowering and curbing of union-rights, even if Project2025 would likely make a lot of stuff on Facebook illegal to host in the US, since republicans want broaden the definition of pornography to include almost everything.

Back in the 2000’s, 4chan was viewed almost as bad as Kiwifarms today.

I can no longer see posts made on a Mastodon instance ran by an ableist piece of shit after I called her an ableist piece of shit, so even Mastodon has this feature.

If they don’t want the Winamp name and/or logo used in forks, they can just add a branding guideline that tells people to rename any forked product and to not distribute any graphical or audio elements associated with Winamp.
